Raymond Blanc: He is kind, funny and loves England and a fantastic cook and boss.
He seems a true gentleman. He enjoys to eat, drink, cook and be with family and friends.

Seve Ballesteros: Was always a fantastic sport on and off of the course. He was a great role model for young and old , and my late husbands favourite golfer.
Sandi Toskvig: Entertaining, easily mixes and very amusing.

Ewan McGregor  Comes across as humorous, . He has a cheeky smile and would bring a smile to other guests.

Florence Nightingale: She seems to me to be perfect examples of the grit and determination that women have had to show to force through progress and care for the benefit of humankind.

Luciano Pavarotti: My favourite tenor, his voice helped expand the popularity of opera worldwide.
A very nice humble man , not the Divo he was portrayed in the media.


This is not my definitive list, but I think this would be in interesting mix

Sue. I think Dame Margaret Rutherford is quite a nice person - bit too shy to be in your company perhaps :-D

Who's gay on my list? If you are casting aspersions at Joy Beverley, I beg to differ ;-)

And Derek told me he was straight the last time we shared a hotel room together (to keep expenses down) :-)
